the government of the USA has changed the name
When did they do that?
Or are you one of those people who would agree if Trump said "I am the state"?
-
What are the rules? And who makes them?

I'm thinking that there was a reason for the change; drilling for oil was blocked in the Gulf of Mexico.

OK, but how is Google supposed to know what nationality you are?

That's a valid point, but why do you expect Google to take a principled stand on this? Take it up with your government.

Doesn't need to (but yeah yeah they're Google, I know...). They just should name it "Gulf of MĂ©xico" or whatever the translated name is to the user's device, and add an asterisk somewhere that shows a note to the effect of "a small fraction of Confederate remnants think it should be called 'Gulf of America'".

If you want to know more about how the US government works, I'm not the person to educate you.

Then why are you here trying to tell people that one asshole with an opinion is the government?

This is stupid and cowardly of them,
What else did you expect?
